Osaka has recently emerged as a magnet for luxury hospitality, with the Four Seasons among the latest prestigious names to open in the vibrant metropolis. Stepping into the ground floor lobby automatically screams luxury, as you’re faced with stylish interiors courtesy of Japanese design house Curiosity. The serene ambiance is elevated by exquisite stonework, soaring lattice partitions, an amber-lacquered elevator area, and a captivating water feature that reflects the changing seasons. Enhancing the sense of refinement are carefully curated artworks thoughtfully placed throughout the hotel, including a striking Urushi sculpture by Genta Ishizuka in the lobby and a graceful piece by Ayako Ueda sitting near the pool.
Located in the central Dojima district, the Four Seasons Hotel Osaka comprises 175 guest rooms, a gorgeous indoor pool, a public bath and a 24/7 fitness centre with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the city skyline. The hotel also offers a modern take on the traditional ryokan experience through its exclusive Gensui floor, which features 21 Japanese-style guest rooms adorned with refined tatami flooring, futon-style sleeping platforms, and amenities such as cotton yukata robes. Those staying on this floor also have access to the Sabo tea lounge, where you can enjoy tea, bento breakfasts, and sake and wine served in the evenings.
The hotel's Western-style rooms are nothing short of stunning, accented with natural wood and stone interiors, crisp white linens and, of course, fabulous city views from the expansive windows. It’s also worth spending some time pampering yourself in the bathroom, where you’ll find plush towels and robes, fancy amenities and a massive bathtub that could probably fit an entire family.
The in-house dining options at the hotel are equally compelling, beginning with a sumptuous breakfast buffet at Jardin. For lunch or dinner, guests can indulge at Sushi L’Abysse Osaka Yannick Alléno – a unique culinary collaboration that fuses Chef Yannick Alléno’s French gastronomy with the sushi craftsmanship of Chef Itaru Yasuda. Come evening, pop in to Bar Bota, where you can sip on expertly crafted cocktails inspired by Osaka's vibrant culture.
